  • False info

    Coverage of the Lindsay Clancy trial starts off the bad with false information. “The main point of this trial was to determine criminal responsibility not whether she committed the crime” that is false. Lindsay pleaded “not guilty” to this crime and 11/12 jurors found her Not Guilty and voted for a complete acquittal. The jurors would not have been able to vote for an acquittal if fully not guilty was off the table.

  • Thank you!

    My sister had postpartum psychosis. People who didn’t know her well thought she was ‘the best she’d ever been,’ while those of us who knew her were desperately trying to get her help. She had zero judgement, was totally detached from reality and was therefore a danger to herself in every way. If you’ve never been at the coal face of this kind of mental illness, it’s so hard to understand and I’m so grateful to you guys for genuinely trying!

  • Still one of my favorite podcasts, but…

    I was a long-time listener of Killer Queens and now This Feels Criminal. I still look forward to every show and love the banter. However, some constructive criticism for Nikkita - let Tyrella talk more! SO many episodes I am waiting to hear what Tyrella has to add and she cannot get a word in. And when she starts talking, Nikkita jumps in to add more of her own personal take. I enjoy what BOTH hosts have to add to the story but feel like it ends up being really one sided. Tyrella is a seasoned p... more

Brock Turner & Candon Dahle: A Promising Young Man- Part 1
Q: When someone commits sexual violence, what should meaningful accountability actually look like?
The hosts say accountability need not mean the longest possible sentence, and that youth, development, and rehabilitation can matter. They question, however, who gets treated as young and worth protecting, while emphasizing that survivors' lasting harm also has to be taken seriously.
